>> you have to take some big whacks at social security. what would you offer them they would allow them to vote for something that would be very difficult for them? >> any ideas, you can pass them on. we have a serious challenge facing the country. in addition to the three challenges i outlined, we are up against the debt limit. while some think that we could go past august the second, i frankly think it puts us in an awful lot of jeopardy and put our economy in jeopardy, risking even more jobs. i believe it is important we come to an agreement, but it has to be agreement there really does fundamentally change our spending and our debt situation. >> given how far apart you describe yourself, what you hope will come out of sunday? >> i do not know. a lot of conversations are continuing. in all honesty, i do not think things have narrowed. i do not think that this problem has narrowed at all in the last several days. thank you.
